Seems to me that whoever should have been in charge of the issue of co-existence over at the MBU really did a botched up job, or none at all, from what you're describing.
This could easily have been dealt with, and only requiring one MUD folder, if the various related folders had 'X' to identify them as such. As you said, it's unfortunate that this wasn't taken into consideration. Me waits for iCal and iSync to ship, as it stands now to check them out, albeit to *only* saving grace of Entourage at this point (until the jerky problem gets solved) is that it's able to tunnel through a firewall, while the designers at Apple seem to be clueless as to why that would be important. Essentially, September 30th will be interesting, and I'm really hoping that they isolate that jerky thing before that date.
